Comments

A belated and heartfelt thank you from me for everything that you did to make our St Cecilia Concert such a success. There has been nothing but praise for the evening and 10 days on parents are still telling me how much they enjoyed it. You play a massive part in that, the sound and lighting all essential to the overall impression. It’s so great to work with someone who is so calm under pressure, great with the children and able to do everything that we ask, seemingly at the drop of a hat. So… thank you very much for all that you did.....

(We have now been booked for two events next year)

Sarah Sneesby - Help For Heroes

Awards Ceremony 2017. This is a yearly event where we have provided AV, sound and lighting services for the past 5 years

This is a highly professional company with a lot of heart! Christian and his blokes have supported our award ceremony at Help for Heroes for several years providing all the audio visual equipment. This year we had many extras including staging and a trussing cube to get the lights absolutely right and nothing was too much trouble.
Christian comes along on the night and just copes with everything that occurs with aplomb, set up and break down happens without a hitch and the overall look and feel that they provided was fantastic.
I would recommend All the Kit to any event organiser; they are quick, reliable, very reasonably priced and above all get involved to make your event the best it can be!

Charlie Bradstock

Joint 21st Birthday Party in September 2017 where we provided our SS15 canopy, inflatable igloo, superb FBT sound system and lots of lights

Absolutely nailed my son's 21st party for 200 . Best party of the year! Totally professional, efficient, imaginative, original and willing to go the extra mile. Would not use anyone else for marquee, sound and lighting.

Christian and the team were professional, friendly and extremely helpful from the outset. From the initial quote, to the delivery and then pack up of the goods, we couldn't have been happier. We hired the full inflatable dome which provided our outdoor party with an indoor stage area, and also the projector and screen. We used the dome and stage for a performance by a live band, a quiz and a wine tasting activity, and the screen and projector for a childrens' cinema. We also hired pea lights which ran round the edge of our field, and the most beautiful coloured uplighters hidden in the trees. The whole effect was breathtaking. I wouldn't hesitate to use this company again and will certainly be recommended All The Kit to others.

Philippa - Meonfest event organiser

Meonfest - About 20 acts playing from 11am through to midnight on two stages. We provided the sound and lighting systems for both stages. We also supplied our inflatable stage dome and outdoor lighting.

I hope you have recovered - not sure I have quite yet! Below is a bit from an email I received from Rupert Younger - Chalk Flowers - thought you would like to read it:

My feedback: it was incredible how you kept to time, I am seriously impressed given how many bands there were. The acoustic tent was brilliant, and the quality of some of the acts there was amazing (especially Annoy The Boy). The main stage was a delight to play on - perfect for the event and with a wonderful sound system. Chris and his team from All The Kit were very professional and also very good...we have now done a lot of set ups with engineers and Chris was really at the top of the tree from our perspective. Made it all work so much better and without the customary issues and worries about what we can and cannot hear.

I don’t think I can add any more so just a huge thank you to you and all your team.I hope the rest of the summer goes well for you.

Best wishes

Military Massed Bands Pageant 2014 - We supplied stage, inflatable dome and sound system for 5000 people. We received a similar letter in 2013 for their Community Day.

Hi Chris

I just thought I would let you know that we have received lots of lovely thank you letters from Em’s friend's for her party and nearly all of them comment on the union jack on the house and the outside lighting. Thank you so much.

Sarah

12 Mech Brigade, Bulford Camp

Sound, lighting, stage and inflatable dome for a mini festival at the camp

I hope this email finds you well.

I just wanted to follow up from the weekend to once again thank Nick and yourself for help making our Summer Ball one of the best I have ever attended. The sheer presence of the stage was what I wanted and you delivered, the whole set up with the igloo and ’Thing’ really set the scene. I’d also like to thank you for including the lighting and smoke machines as .freebies. I will most definitely be recommending your company to people and have already mentioned you to the guy who is arranging the Christmas Ball; he was there Saturday and can see what you do.

All the best for the future

Sound and lighting equipment for a private party/festival.

Hi Christian,

I just wanted to say one last thank you for all of your help and assistance last week. The service you provided was second to none and your advice regarding the pea lights really made the party.

We are tentatively planning on doing the festival again next year and I'll be sure to hire from you if we do!

An engagement party in a marquee a mile away from any other houses

Nick / Christian,

Just a quick note to thank you very much for your efforts last weekend.
The idea of doing a party on the top of a hill, a mile from the nearest road and electrical plug seemed like a good idea when first concieved.... but thanks to you the sound and lighting wasn't one of the logistical feats that troubled us at all !
The underlit trees stole the show and were the most remarked upon feature of the evening and those speakers kept the woodland folk awake untill the wee hours !!

Many thanks - we won't hesitate to recommend you.

Regards,
John & Georgie

Wedding July 2011 at Beaulieu House

Dear Nick,

I am just back from my honeymoon and now have some time to say some thank you's. I just wanted to let you know the lighting that you (or your team) set up was really awesome! Thank you so much!

(The up-lighters especially looked great)

You were a pleasure to deal with and we would certainly recommend your companies professional services to other people.

Thanks again.

Wedding - The drummer was the groom - August 2010

Hello chaps,

I just wanted to say how much I appreciated what you did on Saturday at St. Cross - you really made a big contribution to the four of us (and the guests) having a great time. The gear was great, and your no-fuss attitude was perfect. Perfect little gig for me really - lovely bunch of chaps, all the sound taken care of, nothing but champagne to drink, and an audience utterly bent on enjoying it. What more could anyone ask?

A memorial concert in the Neeld Hall, Chippenham where we provided all the lighting - May 2011.

Hi Christian

Thanks so much for your work for the event on Friday. I understand that it went very well and the lighting and effects were 'stunning'. I know that Dom was really pleased with how it went. Thank you for your part in making it such a memorable evening - I look forward to seeing the video!

Best wishes,
Rob

Disco Equipment delivered and set up for a private party

Nick, Christian,

This is just a quick note to say thank for you services (and equipment) on Saturday 18th September. Everything went very smoothly and was added to by the lights and deck you supplied.

We very much appreciated the dropping off and picking up service, so much so that my youngest son Daniel, who you met and instructed is very much considering using you for his wedding coming up in November next year. Once again thank you....

Cheers
Derek

Wedding - We provided uplighting and a DIY disco which we delivered and set up - July 2010

Hello Nick and Chris,
We wanted to say a big thankyou for helping to make the hall look and sound great for our wedding reception.

The uplighters did a wonderful job creating a lovely atmosphere along with the "water" pattern on the ceiling. The disco speakers were excellent sound quality and the lighting and lazers truly came into their own with the smoke machine! Everything was so easy to work with no hitches or hassles.

Its a credit to you that the lighting created the right environment with so many of our guests up and dancing and saying how the atmosphere took them back to clubbing and festival days. However, we do have to take the credit for the playlist that might have had something to do with it! Primal Scream, Stone Roses to name a couple along with Balearic beats, and trance and house anthems. Got a bit "hard" towards the end with the volume slide going up and up....! Fab - everyone dancing around like loons on a real nostalgia trip.

We have had calls to make it an annual event (just the party -not the wedding !!), now we are more geographically spread and all with families its hard to meet up, so an annual bash with fab music is tempting. So watch this space, we hope to call on your expertise again !

Again many thanks.

Candy Floss machine which was hired out to Dauntsey's school to raise money for Haiti

Christian,

Thank you for the candy floss machine, it was great fun and we made a couple of hundred pounds for Haiti! Sorry about the lid of the box, I hope you were reimbursed when it got dropped off. Thanks again!

Tedworth Ball - Uplighting and sound system for a band. March 2009

Dear Christian and Nick

Many thanks for your work on the Ball. We had a great time and we had so many complimentary comments about the way the venue looked. I think you might pick up a little extra business. I have been asked for your contact details and will email them out today.

Many thanks again

Hey Christian

Just wanted to say a massive thank you for everything at the weekend. The sound and lighting was amazing and the band had agreat gig... I think - but to be honest after a lot of alcohol I may not be the best critic! They said you were really friendly and chilled and made the whole thing super easy & relaxed, so thought I'd pass that on.
